Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an impeller of a Westco-type pump, which is suitable, for example, as an automobile fuel pump.
  • the "Westco-type pump” referred herein is also called a vortex pump, a regenerative pump or a periphery pump.
  • the Westco-type pump makes use of an impeller which is a disk formed on its entire periphery with a multitude of recesses. A pumping action is effected in a working passage surrounding a portion of the periphery of the impeller. One end of the working passage is communicated via an intake passage with a suction tube and the other end is communicated via a discharge passage with a discharge tube. There is a partition between the discharge passage and the intake passage. There is formed an extremely small radial space between an outer periphery of the impeller and an inner periphery of the partition, and an extremely small axial space (a side clearance) between a radial inward end surface portion of the impeller and a radial inward inner surface portion of a casing.
  • Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 58-19745 discloses a recess provided in an inner surface of the casing for generating an axial force urging the impeller, thereby improving the pumping efficiency.
  • Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 58-2495 discloses a spiral groove formed on an end surface of the impeller so as to reduce the thrust load acting on the impeller.
  • Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication No. 57-114195 discloses a number of spiral grooves formed on an end surface of the impeller and an inner surface of the casing.
  • Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 60-85284 discloses a wedge-shaped layer formed between an inner wall of the housing and a sliding surface of the impeller, thereby reducing the wear of the impeller.
  • the impeller configurations according to these prior art disclosures are incapable of producing a sufficiently uniform fluid film in the side clearance formed between an end surface of the impeller and an inner surface of the housing and then hardly suppress the generation of the linking phenomenon.
  • the spiral grooves are formed on the end surface of the impeller, an unbalance of the fluid is positively created within the seal surface region so that the impeller tends to incline due to a slight pressure difference or the like.
  • a floating self-centering turbine impeller comprising a plurality of impeller vanes for facing an annular pumping chamber defined by a casing and end surfaces to be separated from seal surfaces of the casing by small axial spaces.
  • Document US-A-4 854 830 discloses a motor-driven fuel pump comprising an impeller the opposite sides of which are communicated with each other via through holes formed in the impeller, so as to eliminate a pressure difference between opposite sides, thereby preventing the impeller from being slanted.
  • a pump including a disk-like impeller on which a plurality of recesses or pockets are formed in concentric series.
  • the pockets are disposed in such a way that any radial line extends across at least one of such pockets. A leakage from a central portion towards a peripheral portion is reduced, since such leakage passes through the pockets.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an impeller of Westco-type pump in which a substantially uniform fluid film is formed in the side clearance between an end surface of the impeller and an inner surface of the casing, thereby suppressing the generation of the linking phenomenon.
  • a first embodiment of the present invention which is applied to an automobile fuel feeding pump will be described in connection with Figs. 1 and 2.
  • the fuel feeding pump onto which a filter (not shown) is mounted is used to be disposed in a fuel tank.
  • the fuel pump 8 comprises a pump portion 10, a motor portion 12 and a discharge portion 14. Fuel introduced through an intake port 16 of the pump portion 10 passes through a motor chamber 18 of the motor portion 12 and is discharged out of the pump 8 through a discharge port 20 of the discharge portion 14.
  • the motor portion 12 includes a permanent magnet 24 and an armature 26 which are coaxially accommodated within a cylindrical pump case 22.
  • the permanent magnet 24 is secured to an inner wall of the pump case 22 and the armature 26 has a driving shaft 28 rotatably supported by means of bearings 30 and 32.
  • a brush (not shown) is slidably contacted to the armature 26 and is electrically connected to a terminal 36 secured to an end cover 34. This end cover 34 is provided with the discharge port 20 of the discharge portion 14.
  • the pump portion 10 includes a pump housing 44 secured to an opening portion 22a of the pump case 22.
  • the pump housing 44 has a pump cover 38 and a pump casing 40.
  • a disk-like space 46 formed between the inner wall surface 38a of the pump cover 38 and the inner wall surface 40a of the pump casing 40, there is disposed rotatably a disk-like impeller 42.
  • a peripheral portion of the space 46 is formed into a C-shaped pumping chamber 49 along the periphery of the impeller 42.
  • the impeller 42 is fitted to an end portion of the driving shaft 28 rotatably supported by the bearings 30 secured to the pump casing 40. Accordingly, the impeller 42 is axially movable.
  • the space 54 is defined between a seal surface formed at the inner wall surface 40a of the pump casing 40 and the end surface 42a of the impeller 42 whereas the space 55 is defined between a seal surface formed at the inner wall surface 38a of the pump cover 38 and the end surface 42a of the impeller 42.
  • the seal surfaces are formed in an annular configuration, respectively within an annular area having a radial dimension 1 as shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
  • the impeller 42 is provided at a part of periphery thereof with vanes 56 and recesses 58 which alternate with each other as shown in Fig. 1.
  • the impeller 42 is provided at a center portion thereof with an axial through hole 60 designed to be engaged with the driving shaft 28 and with pressure relief axial through holes 62, 63 and 64 for reducing the pressure difference between the both sides of the impeller 42.
  • each end surface 42a, 42b of the impeller 42 is provided with eight C-shaped grooves each having a U-shaped cross section, which are spaced equiangularly form one another and disposed point-symmetrically about a central of rotation of the impeller 42.
  • the C-shaped grooves 66 are oriented so that when the impeller 42 is rotated, the fuel in the U-shaped grooves tends to concentrate at the respective central portion of the C's.
  • the depth of the U-shaped cross section of the C-shaped groove is set to a specific value within a range of 0.01 mm to 0.1 mm. Further, in view of the fact that the end surfaces 42a and 42b become sliding surfaces, the flatness thereof is maintained at a level of 0.005 mm.
  • each space 54, 55 is maintained at a small value, e.g., 0.01 mm (0.02 mm for both) or less, which is smaller than that in the conventional Westco-type fuel pump. It is 0.01 mm to 0.02 mm (0.02 mm to 0.04 mm for both) in the conventional Westco-type fuel pump.
  • the C-shaped grooves 66 are disposed plane-symmetrically with respect to a central surface between the end surfaces 42a and 42b of the impeller 42. All the C-shaped grooves 66 are positioned on the areas of both end surfaces of the impeller 42 facing the corresponding seal surfaces of the pump cover 38 and the pump casing 40, respectively and then communicated with neither a space accommodating the driving shaft 28 nor the pumping chamber 49.
  • the central portions 663 of the C-shaped grooves 66 are arranged to substantially coincide with a radial center circle C (indicated by a one dot line in Fig. 1) of the seal surface.
  • the C-shaped grooves are moved at high speed relative to the inner wall 38a of the pump cover 38 and the inner wall 40a of the pump casing 40. Then, the fuel in the C-shaped grooves is, due to its viscosity, moved in the C-shaped grooves while being attracted to the inner wall 38a and the inner wall 40a, and when it collides against the downstream side walls 660, the velocity components in the axial direction of the impeller 42 towards the pump casing 40 are obtained to generate a force axially urging the pump cover 38 or the pump casing 40.
  • V-shaped grooves 72 are formed on each end surface 42a, 42b of an impeller 42.
  • the V-shaped grooves 72 are arranged in a manner such that when the impeller 42 is rotated, the fuel is moved towards angle portions of the V-shaped grooves 72. This is alike for the V-shaped grooves on both end surfaces 42a and 42b of the impeller 42.
  • a third embodiment is shown in Fig. 6, in which a plurality of pairs of linear grooves 84a and 84b are formed around a center of an impeller on both end surfaces 42a and 42b thereof.
  • Each pair of grooves 84a and 84b are so arranged that they may converge radially outwardly.
  • These grooves 84a and 84b are arranged alternately.
  • the grooves 84a extend to incline circumferentially outwardly with respect to the direction of rotation of the impeller 42 while the grooves 84b extend to incline circumferentially inwardly with respect to the direction of rotation of the impeller 42.
  • the two kinds of the grooves 84a and 84b inclined opposite directions with respect to the direction of rotation of the impeller 42 are formed on both end surfaces 42a and 42b of the impeller 42 to cause the fuel in the spaces 54 and 55 to flow towards the seal surfaces.
  • each C-shaped groove or V-shaped groove may be replaced by a pair of independent grooves arranged corresponding to both arm potions thereof. Further, it may be replaced with a W-shaped groove or the like.
  • the example 1 uses an impeller having no groove on either end surface thereof.
  • the example 2 uses an impeller having spiral grooves 80 formed on both end surfaces 42a and 42b of the impeller 42.
  • Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 58-24955 and Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication No. 57-114195 show the impeller similar to the example 2.
  • the impeller having spiral grooves formed on either end surface thereof can be readily inclined due to slight pressure difference because a fluid unbalance is positively created.
  • the pumps using impeller according to the first and the second embodiments have relatively large discharge and less current consumption with respect to the discharge pressure, as compared with the pumps using impeller according to the examples 1 and 2.
  • the pumps using impeller according to the first and the second embodiments have higher pumping efficiencies with respect to the discharge pressure, as compared with the pumps using impeller according to the examples 1 and 2.
  • the reduction in the pumping efficiency is limited due to that the linking is prevented by the effect of the V-shaped grooves or the C-shaped grooves.
  • the example 2 with the spiral grooves causes the pumping efficiency to be reduced as the discharge pressure becomes higher. This is apparently due to that there develops the linking between the impeller and the pump casing or the pump cover to increase the sliding resistance.
  • the grooves are formed so as to be involuted unidirectionally, it is found that the fuel within the spaces 54 and 55 is concentrated at a single portion located eccentrically and then a uniform liquid film is hardly formed between the impeller 42 and the housing, making it liable for the impeller 42 to incline, hence occurring the linking phenomenon.
  • the C-shaped grooves or V-shaped grooves tend to concentrate the fuel substantially to the radial center circle C and to push it out.
  • a substantially uniform liquid film is maintained within the seal surface to limit the inclination of the impeller 42 while the impeller 42 is skimmed with certainty from the inner wall 38a of the pump cover 38 and the inner wall 40a of the pump casing 40, thus making it not liable that the linking phenomenon occurs.
  • the grooves formed on both end surfaces of an impeller cause fluid to flow towards seal surfaces with a substantially uniform fluid quantity distribution on the impeller. Accordingly, the liquid film is maintained with certainty between both ends of the impeller and the seal surfaces of the housing to reduce the generation of the linking phenomenon.
